Lookin' back over my life I can see where I caused you strife And I know, yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again Lookin' back over my deeds I can see signs wise men heed And if I just had the chance I'd never make that same mistake again Once my cup was overflowin' But I gave nothin' in return Now I can't begin to tell you What a lesson I have learned Well, lookin' back over the slate I can see love turnin' to hate And I know, yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again Once my cup was overflowin' But I gave nothin' in return Now I can't begin to tell you What a lesson I have learned Well, lookin' back over the slate I can see love turnin' to hate And I know, yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again
